Easter Sunday and restaurant was quite but great service and perfect food. Good value, ordered food from gluten free menu as well. Couldn’t have asked for better

Good service and good food. Linguine was a fraction too al dente for my taste. Creme caramel up to its usual brilliant standard. Everything one expects from Cote including a pleasant ambience.

Great service, great food, great price all around great time. Had an amazing lunch for our Mother’s Day celebrations would definitely recommend going her to anyone!!

Yet again another disappointing experience at Cote Brighton. My salmon was cold and my friend's risotto was so overcooked it was basically mush. The server took one of the meals and some of the drinks off the bill but unfortunately, this being the second time this has happened in recent weeks, this restaurant has now fallen off our list of places to take our clients.

Fab evening at the cote restaurant in Brighton. Good service good food and good company. We will definitely be coming back with friends and family .

My wife and I decided on the Valentine menu, smoked salmon, prawn gratine, and fillet steaks finished off with the hazelnut and grand mariner truffles for two. We both agreed this was the best meal we have had in Cote, and we have had quite a few over the years. The only downside was no complimentary glass of Kia Royal which was included on last years menu.

Cote is brilliant - always very friendly, helpful and attentive service. And the food is superb; a real wide range of various meals on the menus, not too fancy and not too simple either. It's all just right! A great experience at a fabulous restaurant, with excellent value for money.

Lovely meal at Cote Brighton tonight, the food was delicious, great atmosphere in the restaurant and great service too! Always enjoy a trip to Cote - perfect pre theatre supper!

Staff were brilliant and very attentive on a busy day

Came here for an enjoyable dinner and that’s exactly what we got, fast and friendly service, delicious food, and even a bottle of wine on the house!

Waited ages for a waiter/waitress. I had to look around and wave for their attention On ordering the drinks I waited ages and again had to get the attention if the waiter to bring the drinks I ordered the moule and it was over cooked, chewy and was more like a starter portion. Should not be served as a main I generally enjoy Cote but on this occasion I had a dreadful experience

Food average, speed of service terrible, had to cancel dessert order as took too long. Cote need more staff at peak times to cater for trade.

Service slow, food not up to the usual standard, luke warm calamari and side orders. Chicken good though. Saving grace was the positive way our comments were dealt with.

Up to Cote Brighton’s usual standard, excellent service, excellent atmosphere and excellent food at a good price. We go to lots of shows at the dome theatre and it’s great to have such a lovely restaurant just across the road. We’d still visit if it was further away though!

The food was great me and family loved it. The service and the staff were amazing.

A very pleasant pre-theatre meal with a friend. Nice fast efficient service as they knew we didn’t have long

Always a warm greeting - I notice several of the lunchtime 'regulars' are greeted by name and made particularly welcome. Great customer service which makes the Brighton Cote very special. All ages are welcome here and the atmosphere becomes one of a very inclusive and warm family. Its great when there are parties of 'suits', young families, and lovely couples all relaxed and happy here. I have been a regular visitor over a number of years and have never been let down or disappointed. Maggie G

Staff very friendly and food excellent. Bizarrely, the only slight mark down I would give is that the food comes out too quickly which makes the whole enjoyment of sitting down for a leisurely meal end too soon. We were not rushed by the staff or made to feel rushed......but it was all over in an hour.

I tend to dine at Cote restaurants quite often in London and on this occasion I ordered my usual calamari and mussels frites in Brighton. I must say It was quite disappointing as usually both dishes are spot on but this time I only had 7 soaking in oil calamari which also didn’t taste great and 6 of my mussels were closed. We also had duck and it was lacking the red wine juice. The only plus for service as the waitress was really nice.

Service was not good . We had to ask twice for our second bottle of wine . Several dishes were not available . Not offered coffees , etc and had to ask twice for the bill - Very disappointed x

We had the prestidge menu. The asparagus was excellent & so was the pork belly. Unfortunately some of the mussells were overcooked with lots of broken bits of shell & the chicken was overdone. It was a shame as the food is normally very good.

Service was exceptional. I would go so far as to say that it made the evening.

We had relatives visiting and wanted somewhere smart but not too expensive for lunch. Also somewhere I could book at short notice. They were quite impressed, we all ate from the lunch time menu and everyone seemed happy with their food. I had the Sea Bream or something similar which was a little small and need something more substantial to go with it, then again I was having 3 courses so... Shepherds Pie seemed to go down well but it looked rather boring in its rectangular dish

As usual great food and great service, plus an excellent atmosphere. What's not to like. We love it, so do all the family. If you want a special night out try Cote.

Arrived before 18.00 we were told we would be eating upstairs, as I have severe arthritis in the knees I told her I would unable to she said their was nothing ground floor and I should have stated that. I have been to Côte before on numerous occasions and have never asked to go upstairs or it to be open upstairs so we went to Carluccios and had a superb meal.

Wonderful birthday meal. The food was fantastic , and the staff/service amazing.

Our visit was lovely as always. The food was tasty. Everyone really enjoyed it. Special thanks to our server who was super friendly and efficient. We will be back again very soon I am sure!

We wouldn’t want to be anywhere else but Cote to celebrate our wedding anniversary. We came along with our dear friends who equally love Cote. We all agreed the staff who are polite, courteous & professional always deliver fabulous food & delicious cold cremant de Bourgogne & muscadet. The restaurant has a great atmosphere. We are fully fledged Brighton Cote enthusiasts.

Menu is always full of lots of choice that makes me want to come back again and again. I always end my meal with my favourite - creme caramel

Friendly and officiant staff. The food was really delicious and there was plenty of it. Certainly good value for money. We were welcomed and spoken to by many of the staff in a very friendly way. No complaints!

Exceptional service. You made my birthday dinner so special. Extra thanks to Nuno. He was amazing

A very good meal in a busy restaurant. Would recommend.

Fabulous meal and service.We chose the prestige set menu which had great choices and was very tasty Complimentary Kir Royals for my partners birthday which was a lovely touch.Thank You

Overall a good lunch time get together for three ladies "out to lunch". We all decided to choose from the lunch time special menu. Two out of three of us were very happy with our choices. but my friend who chose the fish dish received a very small portion and felt pressured into having to have a side dish too - so not such good value for her. Always lively chatter going on in Cote but this time rather noisier than usual. But no problem! We'll be back again soon.

As always you can rely on good service and excellent food. Ideal for special occasions or anytime. We know that we will never be disappointed when we eat at a Cote. Considering the number of diners, you always feel you are getting personal service.

I booked a table for 5 work colleagues to get together with an old work colleague. We were welcomed and my friend,who needs a gluten free, was given an appropriate menu and a lot of advice and help. We were not rushed but were served efficiently when we were ready using a variety of menus. All our food was of a high standard and the staff were very friendly. We stayed to talk long after we had finished eating and were treated with friendliness throughout. Thank you.

Lovely meal, good wine selection, comfortable booth. Would come back again

We all loved our food & the service was fine except the waitress kept calling everyone darling which might be fine in a working mans cafe but not in a decent restaurant, the occasion was my wife’s retirement do , so a nice upmarket experience was expected but the over familiar waitress down graded that experience,

Great service in a great restaurant!! Food and service lovely as always!

A disappointing experience for us. The large restaurant was extremely busy and the kitchen seemed overwhelmed. We waited over 45 minutes for our simple pre theatre order, eventually requesting to have starters, mains and the bill brought together to avoid missing the show. The food was mediocre and tepid when it arrived, another sign of the kitchen struggling. The staff were very apologetic and quick to offer generous compensation which took some of the sting out of the whole experience. We are likely to choose elsewhere in similar circumstances in the future.

As always we enjoyed our visit. We had the prestige menu, which was really good. The red wine we had was excellent. It was very busy, but not a problem.

Food excellent, service was a bit slow but table position ideal. 4 people in our party who all enjoyed their food and drinks. Thanks everyone for a good meal.

Visited mid afternoon on a Saturday. Reasonably busy. Food was good but service was slow. Waiter also had to be reminded to bring our water and kept on giving the wrong food to the wrong person.

We had a very enjoyable lunch. The food was excellent. The free cocktail was delicious. The service was attentive as usual. We recommend Cote to everyone.

Excellent meal with very friendly and prompt service allowing us to get to the theatre on time. Only small negative is that the tables are very close together.

We booked a table and had lovely lunch food and service excellent. Looking forward to our next visit.

We were celebrating our wedding anniversary.Shown to our table promptly our cocktails arrived we were feft to choose from the menu not rushed,the food arrived which was delicious and the service amazing .

I love this place. The food is always excellent & the set lunch is such good value. The staff are friendly & professional & never fail to welcome me back whenever I visit.

We had a reservation for 6pm on Fathers' Day. It felt as if they had run out of steam - food was mediocre - whole experience pretty lacklustre. Disappointing as we usually really enjoy our meals at Cote - £100 not well spent....

Excellent, friendly service. Main restaurant was very noisy but we were moved to the outdoor terrace, which was quiet and not cold. Food was very good and well presented. Waitress very attentive. Will certainly go again.
